The traditional rules that determine the use of who and whom are relatively simple: who is used for a grammatical subject, where a nominative pronoun such as I or he would be appropriate, and whom is used elsewhere。
Thus, we write The actor who played Hamlet was there, since who stands for the subject of played Hamlet; and Who do you think is the best candidate? where who stands for the subject of is the best candidate。
But we write To whom did you give the letter? since whom is the object of the preposition to; and The man whom the papers criticized did not show up, since whom is the object of the verb criticized。
? Considerable effort and attention are required to apply the rules correctly in complicated sentences。
To produce correctly a sentence such as I met the man whom the government had tried to get France to extradite, we must anticipate when we write whom that it will function as the object of the verb extradite, several clauses distant from it。
It is thus not surprising that writers from Shakespeare onward should often have interchanged who and whom。
And though the distinction shows no signs of disappearing in formal style, strict adherence to the rules in informal discourse might be taken as evidence that the speaker or writer is paying undue attention to the form of what is said, possibly at the expense of its substance。
In speech and informal writing who tends to predominate over whom; a sentence such as Who did John say he was going to support? will be regarded as quite natural, if strictly incorrect。
By contrast, the use of whom where who would be required, as in Whom shall I say is calling? may be thought to betray a certain linguistic insecurity。
? When the relative pronoun stands for the object of a preposition that ends a sentence, whom is technically the correct form: the strict grammarian will insist on Whom (not who) did you give it to? But grammarians since Noah Webster have argued that the excessive formality of whom in these cases is at odds with the relative informality associated with the practice of placing the preposition in final position and that the use of who in these cases should be regarded as entirely acceptable。
? The relative pronoun who may be used in restrictive relative clauses, in which case it is not preceded by a comma, or in nonrestrictive clauses, in which case a comma is required。
Thus, we may say either The scientist who discovers a cure for cancer will be immortalized, where the clause who discovers a cure for cancer indicates which scientist will be immortalized, or The mathematician over there, who solved the four-color theorem, is widely known, where the clause who solved the four-color theorem adds information about a person already identified by the phrase the mathematician over there。
? Some grammarians have argued that only who and not that should be used to introduce a restrictive relative clause that identifies a person。
This restriction has no basis either in logic or in the usage of the best writers; it is entirely acceptable to write either the man that wanted to talk to you or the man who wanted to talk to you。
? The grammatical rules governing the use of who and whom apply equally to whoever and whomever。
确定用法的传统规则 who和 whom相对简单: who语法上用作主语,同 I或 he等主格代词的位置相同,而 whom用于别处。这样,我们写 The actor who played Hamlet was there(演哈姆雷特的演员在那边),因此 who代表的是 played Hamlet的主语。
在句子 Who do you think is the best candidate?(你认为谁是最好的候选人?)中 who代表 is the best candidate的主语。但是我们说 To whom did you give the letter? (你把信给谁了?),因为 whom是介词 to的宾语;在句子 The man whom the papers criticized did not show up, (报纸上批评的那个人没有来),因为 whom是动词 criticized的宾语。
在复杂的句子里,正确应用这些规则需要相当的努力和注意。正确地造出如 I met the man whom the government had tried to get France to extradite (我遇到了政府曾努力让法国引渡的那个人)这样的句子,在写 whom之前我们必须预知它将作动词 extradite的宾语,尽管两个词离得很远。
这也就难怪自莎士比亚以来的作家经常把 who和 whom交换使用了。尽管在正式文体中两者区别仍然存在,但如果在非正式的交谈中严格地遵守这些规则会被认为说话者或作者可能不顾内容而过分注视说话的形式。
在口语和非正式书面语中, who趋向于代替 whom;人们会认为象 Who did John say he was going to support?(约翰说他将支持谁?)这样句子很自然,尽管严格来说它是不正确的。
相反,在应该用 who的地方用 whom则显出一种语言上的不稳定,如 Whom shall I say is calling?(我说是谁在打电话?)。当关系代词替代句尾的介词宾语时, whom在理论上是正确的形势:严格的语法坚持 Whom(而不是 who) did you give it to?(你把它给谁了?)但从诺·韦伯斯特以来的语法学家认为 whom在这种情况下过分正式,而把介词放在句尾相对来说又不正式,这就有了矛盾,所以在这种情况下用 who完全可以接受。
关系代词 who可以用在限定关系从句中,前面不要加逗号,也可用在非限定关系从句中,则需要加逗号。所以我们既可以说 The scientist who discovers a cure for cancer will be immortalized (发现治愈癌症的方法的科学家将会因此而不朽),在此处从句 who discovers a cure for cancer指这样的科学家将会不朽,也可以说 The mathematician over there, who solved the four-color theorem, is widely known(在那边的数学家非常出名,他解决了四色定理),从句 who solved the four-color theorem给已经由短语 the mathematician over there确定了的人增加了一些有关他的信息。
有些语法学家认为只有 who而不是 that可以连接表示人的限定性关系从句。这种限制在逻辑上没有根据,在最优秀作家的用法中也未有根据;无论说 the man that wanted to talk to you(想要跟你说话的那个人)或 the man who wanted to talk to you 都是完全可以接受的。
有关 who和 whom的语法规则同样适用于 whoever和 whomever
